Look up syllabic consonants :)
I feel like this is a bit like saying “If cars didn’t have wheels, there would be no Formula 1”.
Hmmmm mmmmmm mmmmmm, mmmmmm mmmmmm mmmmmm mmmmmmmmm,
Once there was this girl and…

30 years ago my music teacher told me that in Chinese-language singing it’s the consonants that are sustained.
And also vowel (open-mouth) sounds. They just hold consonant sounds like English holds vowel sounds.
but humming counts as singing, doesn’t it? which means that you COULD sing without vowels
and birds also don’t have official vowels. I’m starting to see the flaws in my thought :)

No, I would not consider humming singing
well - Wikipedia seems to disagree, and says “common definitions include “the utterance of words or sounds in tuneful succession””
and that was just the first place i looked.
Yea, some voiced consonants like L, M, N, R and maybe Y would work fine for singing, I think. Like if we only had words like “Hm”, or “Lt” (pronounced similar to “ult”), you could sing it fine.
I mean those are already halfway to vowels. In Japanese, “N” can be it’s own syllable.
